About Scrap Iron & Metals
Scrap Iron & Metals is a scrap metal recycling operator working out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania within Philadelphia County. The site serves walk-in sellers, small contractors, and anyone in the surrounding county who needs to turn scrap material into cash rather than haul it to landfill. The site's posted intake list is currently empty in our directory entry, and no specific materials are filed. Per public records, hours of operation aren't recorded and a phone line and a website appear in the listing. The directory carries these as the yard's own self-reported snapshot of its inbound schedule and contact mix, and surfaces them as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
